[edit] California State Building photo needed

A photo of the California State Building (now used by the Museum of Man) is needed. The elaborate frontispiece around the door next to the tower was echoed around the Exposition. I have black and white photos from 1915 but the resolution doesn't do justice to the elaborate stonework. The best angle I"ve seen seems to be from the SW corner of the Fine Arts Building roof (SW corner of the plaza), as that also captures part of the dome behind the entrance. -- SEWilco (talk) 19:34, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Saint Francis Chapel

A photo of the Saint Francis Chapel is also needed. I don't know if the Museum of Man keeps it open to the public when it's not being used for events. -- SEWilco (talk) 19:43, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rebuilding

Some of the buildings were rebuilt. These need to be identified and their status in the article updated. -- SEWilco (talk) 04:00, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
